Montreal’s Félix Auger-Aliassime just beat Novak Djokovic at the Laver Cup

It seems that Loki brought our local tennis star some good luck.

Montreal tennis player Félix Auger-Aliassime just defeated Novak Djokovic for the first time, at the Laver Cup team tournament in London. The players were photographed on the court prior to the match with actor Tom Hiddleston — did Loki bring our local tennis star good luck? (Is this the best timeline?)

Auger-Aliassime (currently ranked 13th in the world) beat Djokovic (7th) in two straight sets, allowing Team World to take the lead in the tournament, 10 points to 8.

“It’s one of my best performances in my career so far.”
